"The lenses you need, Xinghai Technology has a way to provide."

Chen Jin reiterated.

"It can't be!"

Zhang Yuming shook his head suddenly: "With the current industrial processing technology, it is impossible to make such a shot, and its processing difficulty is legendary." ”

"You give me the lens design plan, whether you can make it or not, whether the thing is suitable or not, you will know when you get the thing."

Chen Jin said with a mysterious face, with high confidence.

Not bad.

With the current level of industrial processing on Earth, it is almost impossible to come up with a lithography lens that integrates 10,000 miniature lenses.

So he's going to hang up.

It is produced directly on the planet Helfa and then "imported" to the Earth.

He was going to be a porter again, bringing dozens of lithography lenses with him.

However, in order to cover up people's eyes and ears and explain the source reasonably, Chen Jinde set up a "lithography lens project department" to recruit a group of personnel and provide technical routes, so that these people can make alternative products in a short period of time to avoid arousing suspicion...... With the help of "Virtual Factory 2.0" technology, there is a way to make that lithography lens in a year or two.

Besides, Chen Jin holds 100% of the shares of Xinghai Technology, and there is no need to announce the company's operating conditions.

That's the benefit of 100% ownership by individuals.

In addition, the people of Shang Microelectronics do a good job of confidentiality, and Chen Jin should be a porter, and it is okay to get some lithography lenses.

In short, we must immediately break the blockade of ASML's lithography machine!

Seeing that Chen Jin's face was so determined.

Zhang Yuming inexplicably rose a trace of expectation in his heart, nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Chen!" The design scheme of the lens will be given to you immediately, if your company can really make it, our super-resolution lithography machine will definitely be able to show its strength in the field of chips! ”

Once the lens problem is solved, the advantages of the super-resolution lithography machine are too great, first of all, the cost is reduced by a large section, and then on the larger wafer, 100 sets of lenses, millions of beams of light, at the same time, the lithography efficiency is more than 10 times that of the traditional lithography machine.

The yield rate is also higher (basically 100%).

Since it is a direct "drawing" of the integrated circuit, the flexibility is greatly improved, and the production process of the chip can even be simplified.

Therefore, the production efficiency of the chip will also be significantly improved.

The price of the chips that finally came off the assembly line, to what extent the price of cabbage was, is almost unimaginable.

But......

Although super-resolution lithography technology is good, combined with multiple exposure technology, it can only produce chips of 10~9 nanometers, and it is difficult to push it down.

The most advanced chips on the market are still 7nm and 5nm chips produced by traditional EUV lithography machines.

In terms of price, no matter how cheap the 10-nanometer chip produced with the help of super-resolution lithography is, in terms of performance, it will still be beaten by 7-nanometer and 5-nanometer chips.

For users who are looking for performance and experience, they still care more about a good experience.

Therefore, EUV lithography machine, Zhongxin International still has to have!

It is still necessary to use this kind of lithography machine to produce high-end chips such as 7nm and 5nm, and it is impossible to give up this market.

The problem is that AMSL doesn't sell this lithography machine!

What should Zhongxin International do?

You can only produce EUV lithography machines by yourself.

Zhang Weijing's purpose in acquiring Microelectronics is to use his own EUV to break the malicious ban of ASML.

Huh, what about intellectual property? Patent barriers are gone?

What should I do if ASML's lithography machine patent is infringed?

"It's not illegal."

Zhang Weijing explained: "The state amended the Patent Protection Law two years ago and added a special provision, which means that if some advanced technology equipment is unreasonably banned from sale abroad, and the company that is maliciously banned can ignore the other party's patent barriers and copy the other party's equipment to break the monopoly, if they sue in a lawsuit, we can come up with this law to invalidate the other party's complaint." ”

"What do you mean is that ASML has banned the sale of EUV lithography machines to Zhongxin, and Zhongxin can develop EUV lithography machines by itself, without considering whether it infringes the other party's patents?" Chen Jindao.

"That's right! If you ban it unreasonably, I will copy it immediately! This is completely legal, if you don't want to sell it, I won't copy it, if you are unkind, I am qualified to counteract. ”

"I'm afraid that many foreign companies can't accept this law, right?"

"If you can't accept it, you have to accept it, if you forcibly block the road, others will have to sit still? You were the first to invent that technology, but you have the power to decide the life and death of others? What kind of robber logic is this! Patent protection is not for you to do whatever you want, if you dare to use the ban to harm the interests of customers, customers have the right to fight back! ”

"The acquirer Microelectronics, creating the EUV lithography machine, is our most direct counterattack!"

Zhang Weijing clenched his fists and said.

Chen Jin nodded: "Yes, patents are not tools to do whatever they want, and victims have the right to launch a counterattack." ”

But thinking of a question, he frowned and said: "Foreigners are shrewd to death, your side of EUV has made a breakthrough, they will immediately cancel the embargo, and there is a reason to sue you, what should I do?" Wouldn't the acquisition of more than 8 billion yuan be ineffective all of a sudden? ”

"Rest assured, after breaking the embargo, we have bargaining chips, ASML wants us to give up domestic EUV, re-buy their lithography machine, originally 100 million dollars a piece, now we have to sell 50 million units, we must sell it at cost price! Because our self-produced EUV is this cost, and as many units as Zhongxin wants to buy, you have to provide as many units as possible, priority supply, if it can't meet our needs, we have the right to buy our own EUV. ”

Cost price + unlimited purchase rights.

This is the right that Zhongxin International will enjoy if ASML chooses to make peace after breaking the EUV embargo.

It is also a supplementary provision in the Patent Protection Law.

If the foreign company is not satisfied, hold back!

Who made your ban on sales cause immeasurable losses to Zhongxin International? The market value alone has evaporated by 30 billion!

Therefore, these supplementary provisions in the Patent Protection Law are also called "legal copycat clauses".

After its launch, it effectively deterred a number of foreign technology companies and patent trolls.

Once Zhongxin International's subsidiary, Shangwei Electronics, decides to copy ASML's EUV lithography machine, coupled with the assistance of the "virtual factory", it will be able to break the ban on ASML in about half a year at most.

In a word, as long as you have what others have, you also have it, the so-called "forbidden" will not befall you.

Chen Jin shook his head: "I knew that there was such a legal clause, and we should have acquired Shangwei Electronics half a year ago and carried out a copycat in advance, so that as soon as they announced the ban, we immediately came up with alternative products, and it was impossible to fall into such a passive and delay for half a year." ”

"Blame me for believing in ASML too much."

Zhang Weijing blamed himself: "I thought they didn't dare to ban the sale, but it turned out to be banned, I underestimated the energy of Western capital behind Sanxin and TSMC, heh, hundreds of billions of dollars a year, how could they be willing to let go?" ”

"Resolutely making money is equivalent to killing parents, and it is normal for them to jump over the wall in a hurry."

Chen Jin nodded: "Just learn a lesson this time, and then check if there are any shortcomings, if there are, make up for them now." ”

However, after careful investigation, in addition to the lithography machine, there are almost no other places that are controlled by others, such as photoresist in the past two years, many domestic companies have made breakthroughs, breaking the foreign monopoly, etching machine is a strong point...... It's a bit of everything.

The technological blockade of foreign countries is about to face the situation of poor skills.

They really don't have a good life for a few days.
